Cover von Bridget Fowler: Obituary as Collective Memory (PDF)

The first serious academic study of obituaries, this book focuses on how societies remember. Bridget Fowler makes great use of the theories of Pierre Bordieu, arguing that obituaries are one important component in society’s collective memory. This book, the first of its kind, will find a place on every serious sociology scholar’s bookshelves.
